may well turn out to be such a non-conformance.

Please report it on the gnom xml list for libxml/libxslt, or using bugzilla, if it's a bug.

I'll take care of that.


I don't think that libxslt is particularly more or less strictly
conformant to the spec than other implementations I've tried.

I found an issue the other day and reported it as a bug.

I've yet to see a piece of software that's perfect; the questions to
ask are, is it good enough to use, and if I report bugs, do they get
fixed...

I'm happy with LibXSLT. I think it's much more than good enough to use. I could never do anything like that. It's very fast. Although I've found that depending on algorithm and input size (contrived examples, however), Saxon 9 may be significantly faster.

Anyway, for Perl, Python and PHP, there is only LibXSLT and Sablotron.
And maybe Xalan-C++.

As to bug reports and bugfixes, we'll see.
